This is Why you Never Use Launch Control on a Curve

5/7/20182:33 estFiled to: Porsche AccidentsBy: Pepper Girl11 Comments

I'm not 100% sure this guy was using launch control or just reached down to put the 911 in idiot sport mode and disengage PSM (Please Save Me would have helped in this case).

4/7/20144:45 estFiled to: Porsche 918 SpyderBy: Pepper GirlComment

At the end of March Porsche invited a select group of journalists to the Circuit of The Americas in Austin, TX to spend some quality time with the production version of the 918 Spyder. Among the activities enjoyed by all was a game of lead/follow involving Patrick Long in a 911 Turbo S and the media in the 918s. While track time in the 918 was …
